00:16They open the doors with a smile and a light
00:20Promise the world if you just play it right
00:23Young hearts walk in, still believe in the dream
00:27Leave with the same face, but something I'm seeing
00:31They tell you to change where the horror can see
00:35No walls and no shame, just the cost of the key
00:39Desperate enough and the rules start to bend
00:43Until where you were is no longer your friend
00:46They never demand it with blood on the floor
00:50They just make you hungry enough to want more
00:57Lights and eyes, it's the real price of fame
01:01Give up the truth or you'll never forget a name
01:05Hollywood glow in the musing machine
01:08We'll take what you are and leave only the sheen
01:13Sell every line that she swore you would keep
01:16But watch every door close while the silence runs deep
01:20The ones who refuse, fade into the night
01:24The ones who comply, become a new light
01:30Become a new light
01:34Become a new light
01:36Become a new light
01:40They call it ambition
01:42They call it the game
01:43But the air is so thick with the weight of the shame
01:48Talent arise with the name still their own
01:51Leaves with the brand that was never their own behind
01:55Behind every chart and sold out nights
01:58There's a quiet demand that rewrites the rights
02:02Just this once turns into every single day
02:06Until the mirror shows someone else in the way
02:10They don't need a ritual under the moon
02:15They just need the hunger that makes you stay soon
02:21Lights and lies, it's the real price of fame
02:25Give up the truth or you'll never forget a name
02:29Hollywood glow in the musing machine
02:32We'll take what you are and leave only the sheen
02:37Tell every line that she swore you would keep
02:40But watch every door close while the silence runs deep
02:44The ones who refuse, fade into the night
02:48The ones who comply, become a new light
03:00I walked away from the golden stage
03:11Lost the circle, the money, the love of that age
03:15But I kept the one thing they wanted the most
03:19The part of me they could never hold
03:23Lies and lies, it's the real price of fame
03:26Give up the truth or you'll never get a name
03:30Hollywood glow in the musing machine
03:34We'll take what you are and leave only the sheen
03:38But some of us still remember the car
03:42Some of us never forgot what was lost
03:46We'll sing it out loud
03:48So the next ones can see
03:50You can keep your mom slow
03:54And still be free
04:02The lights are still shining
04:07But the lights still remain
04:11But the lights still remain
04:27You
